A fresh and vivacious portrait which highlights the exuberant personality of the bride. You really feel the warmth shining through the moment and the background compliments this moment.

Clean and elegant. Well-done in all respects. The strongest in a category that rarely rose to its potential.

Lit well. Nice mix of bride and use of background.

A wonderfully evocative and graphic approach with a myriad of contrasting lines makes this a portrait with a sense of fashion about it. The balance of light and shade compliments the bride and her dress.

This is a beautiful portrait of a beautiful woman. It has the feeling of an early 10th century portrait.

A wonderful portrait with a cacophony of Christmas lights that compliment her bright smile and eyes. The untraditional background lights also serves as a reminder that this wasn't a traditional wedding date. I might suggest a crop without the house in the background as it could distract from the main subject. A good job nonetheless.
